Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0800903A1] Apparatus and method for forming a honeycomb structure capable of adjusting a shaping speed of an outer skin of the honeycomb structure, thereby preventing a defect in the skin. The shaping device is constructed by a die 10 having slits 11 for formation of a honeycomb structure and a guide ring 2 arranged downstream of the die 11. The guide ring includes an opening with an inner edge 21 and includes at a location upstream from the edge a pool portion 22 for the formation of a skin of the honeycomb structure. A temperature controller 3 is arranged in the guide ring for controlling a heating on a cooling of a ceramic material held in the pool portion 22. <IMAGE>
